Elite Benefits Program details
This is one of online poker’s most lucrative rewards programs, but you need to prove your mettle on the battlefield.
New recruits start off with the rank of Lieutenant. To progress up the ranks, you will need to gather Rank Points (RPs). You earn 5.5 RPs for every $1 spent in rake or tournament entry fees. Additionally, you can accumulate fractional RPs as you play.
Acquire a designated quantity of RPs within a calendar month, and you’ll progress through the ranks according to the table provided below:
| LOYALTY LEVEL | RANK | RP REQUIREMENT |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | LIEUTENANT | None (Default) |
| 2 | CAPTAIN | 750 per month |
| 3 | MAJOR | 3,000 per month |
| 4 | COLONEL | 7,500 per month |
| 5 | GENERAL | 100,000 in calendar year |
| 6 | 5-STAR GENERAL | 1,000,000 in calendar year |
To retain your current rank, ensure you gather the minimum required RPs in the following month as well. However, once a recruit reaches 100,000 RPs and attains the rank of General, there is no longer a need to meet monthly requirements.
To attain the rank of General, you must earn 100,000 RPs within the calendar year. You can reach this milestone at any time before December 31 to enjoy the perks of your new status. However, on January 1st, all RPs are reset.
If you reach the General or 5-Star General ranks, you will maintain this status guaranteed until March 1st of the following year. To uphold your status, you will need to:
- To keep your General rank: Obtain 7,000 RPs per month or go down to Colonel;
- To keep 5-Star General rank: Obtain 45,000 RPs or go down to General.
Earning Combat Points
As you earn Rank Points, you will also gather Combat Points (CPs). These serve as the currency within the Elite Benefits Program and can be exchanged for cash rewards.
The rate at which you earn CPs is determined by your current rank, based on the following
| RANK | RP TO CP RATIO |
|---|---|
| LIUETENANT | 1 RP : 1 CP |
| CAPTAIN | 1 RP : 1.5 CP |
| MAJOR | 1 RP : 2 CPs |
| COLONEL | 1 RP : 2.5 CPs |
| GENERAL | 1 RP : 3.5 CPs |
| 5-STAR GENERAL | 1 RP : 5 CPs |
As illustrated, the higher your military rank, the more rapidly you will accumulate CPs.
If you do not earn any points in the calendar year, any unused CPs will expire on December 31st.
